XML response format is in a fashion compliant with the SRU spec. Response metadata displayed is largely dependent on recordSchema. The 'srw:extraRecordData' node contains URL's for catalogue records, external links, details on holding libraries and other potentially useful information.
Using results from this service to access full holdings information api is currently somewhat odd, spilt yheextraRecordData->extID field the pipe character to get a database code and bibID. These can then be passed to the Aquabrowser All Records Service to get the unduplicated list of holdings, and then use the Full Record Service to populate each record.
